The likes of Nosey Parker and Andy Wilson couldn't write a decent limerick on a bog wall unless someone gave them the words, let alone a column in the press.
Would you care to point out to me this inconsistency in punishments and how it contradicts with your beloved NRL system? Both systems are reliant on a group of individuals deciding what grade an offence is, establishing guilt then setting down the punishment within the ranges allowed for that grade of offence.
It's pretty much how the magistrates system works, so if it's good enough for criminal law it's good enough for me thanks.

How is it MY beloved NRL sysytem?????
As for your digs at parker and wilson i couldn't give sh#t about either of them but the likes of dave hadfield and martyn sadler i respect.
As for the proof of inconsistency just look at any of the many instances where bans have been dished out then look at the same offences when play-offs,internationals or vital CC c games are to be played!
Again we'll have to agree to disagree the system is flawed and inconsistent IMHO and the summary of the gilmour/lee smith highlighted it perfectly.
Anyone not going to the game on Friday, should have a go at it!
